My wife, had obtained time off from her NHS hospital and was going on a long planned long weekend with our daughter who has health problems. We received written notification (which the owner signed with a rather inappropriate kiss) with less than 48 hours notice that our booking was cancelled. They declined to speak to us on the telephone, which we found remarkably discourteous given the circumstances. They sent 2 alternative accommodation suggestions, via the booking website, leaving us to follow these up ourselves, when we felt it was their responsibility to source something of an equal or higher standard. One of the suggestions was comically inappropriate, and the second had many rooms available, perhaps because on Tripadvisor it had a significant number of “Terrible“ ratings including photos of peeling plaster, cracked sinks and tiles, etc. Given the short notice in the middle of August, it was not possible to find anything remotely suitable in the local area. Bowlish House simply referred us back to the third-party booking website we had booked through. There was no follow-up to find out how things had gone for my wife and daughter. Given the unreliability and discourtesy we felt we received, and despite other positive reviews, we would be very reluctant to ever book with Bowlish House again. Certainly not for an important event such as a big birthday or a wedding. Nevertheless, booking directly with Bowlish House, rather than through a third-party website, would ensure that the contract was with Bowlish House so that one would be covered by Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974, as well as being able to pursue other remedies were a similar situation to arise again.

What a lovely place to stay when we arrived the host was very welcoming and very friendly which put us at ease. Everything in the stay was fantastic. The rooms were large and everything was supplied and the breakfast was varied and welcoming. We really enjoyed our time there and we definitely look atreturning.
